Everyone is almost ready for battle.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, as if even breathing became cautious. They silently checked their weapons and equipment, with firmness and determination in their eyes.
At the front of the team, a knight in iron armor raised his sword high, his eyes flashing with fanatical flames.
Behind him, a group of soldiers wearing various armors followed closely. Their faces were full of determination, as if they were ready to die.
Following the knight's order, everyone began to move forward slowly.
Although their steps were heavy, they were unwavering.
Lu He took a sneak peek through the gap, his eyes suddenly widened, and his hands clenched into fists.
She saw a group of soldiers, wearing various armors, with firm eyes and steady steps, especially the one who was the recipient.
She felt her heartbeat speed up and her blood boil. Her hands clenched into fists and her eyes widened.
Shu Zhihan noticed something was wrong with Lu He. She gently held Lu He's hand and asked with concern: "Lu He, what's wrong with you? I feel like something is wrong with you."
Lu He was awakened by her words. When he came back to his senses, he found that his hand had been held tightly by Shu Zhihan.
She looked up at Shu Zhihan, her eyes flashing with tears and her lips trembling slightly.
Shu Zhihan looked at her and asked gently: "Did you see something? Tell me."
Lu He bit his lower lip, nodded, shook his head, and said in a weak voice: "I'm fine, I just think those soldiers are very brave."
Shu Zhihan heard something was wrong in Lu He's tone, but she did not continue to ask further.
She gently patted the back of Lu He's hand.
Lu He looked outside again, and unexpectedly met the sight of the leading soldier.
He was wearing iron armor and his eyes were firm and sharp, as if he could see through everything.
Lu He was shocked by his gaze and nervously tightened the curtain.
Her heartbeat quickened and she tried to calm herself down, but the figure of the leading soldier lingered in her mind.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down, but no matter how hard she tried, the soldier's eyes could not be ignored.
Shu Zhihan looked at Lu He's nervous look and subconsciously reached out to open the curtain.
A gust of cold wind blew in the face, and Lu He couldn't help but shiver. She followed Shu Zhihan's gaze and turned pale with fear.
The leading soldier was seen approaching them step by step. His steps were steady and powerful, as if every step was declaring his determination to them.
His eyes were firm and sharp, as if he could see through all disguises.
Lu He nervously tugged on Shu Zhihan's sleeves, her voice trembling slightly: "Why is he here?"
Shu Zhihan gently patted the back of Lu He's hand to calm her down.
She looked at the soldier who was getting closer and closer, and she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable tension in her heart.
She held Lu He's hand tightly, "It's okay, I'm here."
Shu Zhihan didn't understand why Lu He, who seemed to be fearless, was afraid of the person in front of him.
She observed the soldier carefully and found that although he was wearing iron armor, he was not tall and could even be said to be a little thin. However, his eyes were full of determination and sharpness, as if he could see through all disguises.
This reminded Shu Zhihan of a saying: The most powerful weapon is not swords, guns, and halberds, but eyes.
They saw the soldier approaching them step by step, his eyes cold and sharp. Lu He nervously pulled Shu Zhihan's sleeves, almost crying.
She thought of the soldiers she had seen before. Although they were wearing various armors, their eyes were firm and their steps were steady. She had never been so scared.
As the soldier approached, Lu He felt an invisible pressure rushing towards her face, making her almost breathless.
She closed her eyes tightly, not daring to look into the soldier's eyes.
Suddenly, the soldier stopped, glanced at Lu He coldly, then turned and left without saying a word.
Lu He felt his heart beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. She clutched her chest tightly, trying to calm herself down.
After the leading soldier left, Shu Zhihan looked at Lu He seriously and asked, "Lu He, do you know that soldier? Why are you so nervous when he approaches you?"
Lu He was stunned by Shu Zhihan's question. She shook her head and said in a weak voice: "I don't know him, I just think he is scary."
Shu Zhihan frowned, she felt that things were not simple.
She carefully recalled the scene just now, and found that the soldier did not seem to have any hostility when he approached them, he just simply approached them.
This made Shu Zhihan a little confused. She didn't understand what the soldier meant.
They continued to head towards the camp, but the group of people just followed them quietly and did not make any move.
Lu He looked back at the group of people from time to time and found that they always kept a certain distance and followed silently.
She didn't know what these people meant, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart.
Shu Zhihan noticed Lu He's nervousness, and she gently held her hand, trying to give her some comfort.
The surrounding trees gradually become sparse, and the sunlight shines through the leaves on the ground, forming mottled light and shadow.
They knew that the camp was not far away.
However, the presence of that group of people made them feel an invisible pressure, as if a storm was coming.
Shu Zhihan looked at Mi Yue beside her with concern and told her softly: "We will arrive at the camp soon, you don't have to be afraid."
She knew that Mi Yue had been nervously paying attention to the movements of the group of people behind her. The group of people had been following them at a close distance, which made Mi Yue feel very uneasy.
Shu Zhihan gently patted Mi Yue's shoulder, trying to calm her down.
She recalled the scene when she first came to the camp. At that time, she also felt scared and uneasy, but now it seemed that those were things of the past. She believed that as long as they stayed calm, everything would be fine.
As their pace became faster and faster, the outline of the camp gradually appeared in sight.
Under the sunlight, the huge tent looked particularly eye-catching.
Lu He and Shu Zhihan walked nervously through the camp, and the soldiers around them cast curious glances.
They quickly arrived at the gate of the camp. Meng Hongyao had been waiting at the gate for a long time. He quickly came forward to greet them and sent them to a tent that had been arranged in advance.
The tent was very simply decorated, with only a table and a few chairs.
But Lu He and Shu Zhihan no longer cared about this. As soon as they entered the tent, they couldn't wait to ask Meng Hongyao about the people who were following them.
Meng Hongyao pondered for a moment and told them that those people were suspicious and that he would strengthen security in the camp to ensure their safety.
Lu He and Shu Zhihan breathed a sigh of relief. They sat at the table. At this time, everything in the camp seemed particularly calm.
After Meng Hongyao settled them, he left the camp. He walked quickly through the camp and came to a high ground.
The view here is wide and you can overlook the entire camp.
Meng Hongyao took a deep breath and quickly sent the news back to the general's mansion.
His eyes were firm and resolute, and he knew that in the coming time, the camp would face a test. Following his eyes, the camp in the distance seemed to become more tense, and the soldiers were patrolling vigilantly to ensure safety.
Luo Jinyu was in the general's mansion, worried about Shu Zhihan's safety.
He had never been so nervous even on the battlefield in the past, but this time because of Shu Zhihan, he had many distracting thoughts in his mind.
He imagined Shu Zhihan in the camp, as if he could feel her breath.
He clenched his fists and took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil.
He knew that at this moment, he needed to remain calm and collected.
When he received the news from Meng Hongyao, Luo Jinyu couldn't wait any longer. He was concerned about Shu Zhihan's safety, so he called the two Meng brothers to discuss countermeasures.
Meng Haowen and Meng Haowu came after hearing the sound, with a bit of seriousness on their faces. They knew the seriousness of the situation and how Luo Jinyu was feeling at the moment.
The three of them stood in the study room of the General's Mansion, and the night outside the window gradually deepened.
Luo Jinyu said in a deep voice: "Shu Zhihan and the others have arrived at the camp safely, but the identities of those following them have not yet been identified. We must be fully prepared."
Meng Haowen was relatively calm. He analyzed the current situation and proposed some countermeasures.
But Meng Haowu was as impulsive as ever. A trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes and he asked: "What should we do now? Let's go to the camp and kill those people."
There was unquestionable determination in his voice, as if he would take action without hesitation as long as someone dared to stand in front of him.
Luo Jinyu glanced at him and said nothing.
He knew Meng Haowu's temper, and he also knew that what he said was not completely unreasonable.
But what they need now is calm thinking and correct strategies, not blind impulse.
He took a deep breath and said, "We need more information. Why those people are following and what their purpose is, these questions need to be clarified."
His words calmed Meng Haowu down, and he realized that his impulse just now was indeed a bit reckless.
The most important thing now is to collect more information to better deal with the challenges ahead.
Meng Haowen also nodded in agreement, his eyes shining with thought.
The three of them sat around the table in the study room, with the dark night sky outside the window.
The lights in the room shone on their faces, and everyone looked extremely serious.
Luo Jinyu looked at the expressions of the Meng brothers. At this moment, their hearts might have flown to the camp. After all, the people they cared about were all there.
And Meng Haowu no longer rejects Lu He, ever since she saved Mi Yue.
